About Fiordland & Milford Sound

Fiordland is the wild south-west corner of New Zealand's South Island, a land of deep fiords, rainforest and lakes, home to Milford Sound.

Fiordland National Park fills the south-western corner of the South Island, a mountainous wilderness of glacier-carved fiords, lakes and temperate rainforest listed by UNESCO as part of Te Wāhipounamu. Milford Sound, in Māori Piopiotahi, is a steep-sided fiord where Mitre Peak rises about 1,700 metres straight from the water. It is one of the wettest places on Earth, and in heavy rain temporary waterfalls appear down every wall.
